With all that is going on: mandates, CRT, late turn abortion, our childhood heroes like Superman and Captain America, are being perverted into unrighteous agendas. In these times, we as Christians feel isolated, frustrated, and hated. So how can we be free again?
We remember God’s word.
In Hebrews 13:5-8 (KJV) we are told that God has said I will never leave you nor forsake you. So, we can boldly say the lord is my helper, I shall not fear what man can do to me. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Jesus is the same savior in 2021, and God will never leave us. I say to all who hear me all too well, keep fighting the good fight. Remember we have God on our side, and we’re working for a crown incorruptable. What do they have?
Finally, remember these words, Romans 8:18 (KJV) “I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that shall one day be revealed in us.”
That’s not Politically Correct, that’s “Poetically Christian.”
